This is one of those periodic list-etiquette reminders:
When replying to someone's message:
--Please do not quote entire posts, or quote the signature file at the end of a post. It just adds up to more bytes, and makes your point harder to digest and read. So when you write a reply to the list, delete delete delete the quoted lines that are not relevant to your message.
--Please remember to put CM> at the front of your post's subject line. This makes it easer to sort and scan which messages come from the list in our in-boxes-- especially nice for people without filters.
--Please do not, for those of you in digest mode, forget to clean your subject line up to reflect the actual subject of your post. That way we won't get messages with Re: CYHIST Digest... in the header of individual messages.

Thanks!
